Boulder Nonlinear Systems manufactures and sells high-speed liquid crystal components including spatial light modulators, polarization rotators, and shutters to OEM partners and researchers for a range of applications such as telecommunications, medical imaging, adaptive optics and optical computing.

We have been building high quality liquid crystal components for over 17 years. Combining decades of engineering experience with world-class production facilities, we are equipped with both the technological resources and the knowledge to guarantee success for your most complex electro-optic requirements.

The prism's envy. BNS's unique 512x512 multi-level/analog Liquid Crystal Spatial Light Modulator is a very high frame rate device that can modulate light in pure amplitude, pure phase, or coupled amplitude and phase.

And the winner is.... The BNS 1 X 4096 SLM, an economical, fully- programmable beam steering device, received the prestigious Photonics Circle of Excellence Award. CMOS architecture allows it to provide non-mechanical beam deflection.
